The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

Not to spoil the article, but Alex perfectly lays out the reasons of why Ubuntu switching from coreutils to the Rust-based reimplementation uutils is a great idea — EVEN if coreutils were perfect and bug-free.

You thought I was joking? I'm not, come and work with me, for real. It's potentially fun and loaded with emojis. 😅 If you like FastAPI and know a lot about Kubernetes, cloud, observability, all that stuff, send an email. And send this to your badass SRE/DevOps friend. 🚀

If you would self-host your web analytics stack, how would you prefer to access the frontend (and why): a) On a public website b) Locally in your browser (no public deployment) c) Use a local Electron app Thanks for any feedback!

welcome to all new bluesky users. please keep in mind that it is still in beta. there are many features still missing, so please be patient. for example, you may notice that this app loads posts and then shows them to you, instead of not doing that for some reason.

New feature just dropped: custom feeds! Now you can choose what algorithm powers your social media experience. We’ll feature some in this thread, but you can easily discover more in the feeds tab. Rolling out to app stores now — upgrade to Version 1.29 when it’s available in your app store.

I personally think it’s bad the world’s richest man is defending a neo-Nazi mass shooter on the social media platform that he owns.

All apps should have this feature. (the feature where you say things at the developers and they respond like this)
